Hi, I wonder if there's any hope for the following. The machine details are: Compaq Presario 3020 Pentium 130 MHz 88MB RAM (EDO) ~4GB HD TFT monitor (VGA?) S3 Aurora64V+ video card (2MB) Logitech Mouseman cordless mouse (3 buttons) 4 CD-loader x8 Japanese layout keyboard Now, I've installed FreeBSD 3.3 with little trouble (not trouble-free though, but that was due to not being able to fiddle with the BIOS). Everything ok except for the mouse, which does not recognize. I wouldn't mind it if it didn't recognize it for the console, but at least for X. I've been looking for info on this mouse types (cordless ...), and all I was able to find was a page with some messages about configuring the Logitec Mouseman cordless "wheelmouse" (remember mine is just a 3-button mouse). My X version is 3.3.5, and I tried to apply the configuration protocol they talked about: imps/2 or MouseManPlus/2 or some such (I've tried several different ones), but X does not recognize this protocol ... any idea? <aside> Anyway, I tried adding a ps/2 mouse for setting up X, and it worked. But as soon as I ran /stand/sysinstall again for setting up psm0 on the console (which it did), X stopped working (tried several X configurations by now). Could this be related to the ps/2 mouse and the cordless mouse controller interfering somehow? </aside> PLEASE, send me a CC: as I'm not subscribed to this list.
